Dollar Tree Wreath | Spring Wreath | DIY Easter Decor

after the Julie reboot, EGH. I hope you enjoy this tutorial. We're just going to take a simple

dollar

tree

wreath

frame that's shaped like a cross. Some old tulips I had in the back storage room make very pretty ribbons. I'm going to make it very easy DIY Cross Reef stay tuned so for this cross

wreath

we're going to use tulips and I'll be honest with you. I've seen a lot of tulip crosses people have been making and my wreath makers in more groups so thanks for the inspiration you guys are doing an amazing job so I was thinking what do I already have in my craft stash?

You know, we all have some craft stashes. I've had these tulips for probably three years and they are the largest tulips so maybe I'll get them for you, this is what the smaller tulips look like but when did you get them from Michael so you can see the size differences please what these are much bigger? and I thought you know what I'm going to use what I have and kind of do that and then what we're going to do is just put this together and show you how simple this can be now these are cross wreath frames that I found at Dollar Tree , this is actually the first year I've found them at my Dollar Tree, but here's another suggestion, if you can't find them, grab a wooden dowel that you can get for a

dollar

at Walmart, you can fight it in the craft section , cut it to the dimensions you want and just zip tie it like this, it's okay on the cross supports and then it could be a thinner cross and thinner tulips, but you can still make it look like this so let's get started.

I started, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to go over here and as you can see, this is very old. I have some stems that don't have tulips on them, so I would like to use this and get this. Finish up, so to speak, and get it out of my storage room, but also make it really pretty, so I'm just cutting my tulips. Some of them are just one to look at together, if necessary, let's see if I can find one with two. I don't have any with two, okay, so you can see, I lost them, so what I'm going to do is see if this works.

Yeah, I'll put it on this other line so I have one with two. and I'm just going to cut all of these out and then we'll put them all together in a moment, okay, so we have all of our tulips cut out and these big tulips. I would say I used four bunches of them, but actually when we're done with this, we're probably going to use a hot Mod Podge of several different kinds, so all I'm going to do is grab a few and start working them together here and see how I want them to stay and I.

I'm going to try to gather as many as possible before adding my first zip tie, so I'll just stagger them because I'm using two colors. I'm just going to stagger the colors. I think this would be really nice if it were. It was also like all one color, so I think I can put them all on a zip tie here, so I'm going to go over and show you how to tie them really close together, okay? You can see I went through the two center supports of our wreath frame, okay, so let's cut it out and we'll work with how it looks at the end because we're also going to add some fills here, so just do a little bit more pink and yellow , so I just want to make sure that we cover the previous zip ties that I already put in here and I think it looks pretty good and we're going to continue doing it like that.

In this case, I'll leave the leaves on top of the flange, so there's really no wrong way to do this. I guess it's pretty simple, so I think we'll do one more group here. then we'll start in the other direction, so I'll go back and show you how we're going to make the other dress, so I have one direction that goes in that direction, so let's focus on the other one, so we'll make our tulips go in this direction and they go in the direction of any frame that is pointing in that direction, so you may want to cut some of these off.

I'm going to lift this up and crop it. above because it's a smaller section we're working with. I'm going to ride those waves, they can be a little tight. Well, the point here is that it's important to cover the frame, so maybe I want to go up. is high enough. I'm going too high because you want to keep that angry look. You know, what I'm saying is that it looks pretty good. I'm going to add a few more, though let's see, I want to add a little bit of pink like this. one is like here you go, oh, this one came off, you can always add a little bit of glue, let's add, there's only a pink one and I'm going to run this through the existing stem so it goes underneath and make another yellow one.

Alright, so let's take another one of these. Okay, so I'm going to go under some of these green leaves because they're connected and you're just going to tie them together and then we'll do the same thing. in both directions going the opposite way as you can see I didn't get this one so let's add another zipper or you can even see I can get it on the previous zipper so that's it everything will work. Okay, so I think we're going to need a few more for the top here. I want some here, so let's go and this is where I go.

I'm just going to cut some of these down a little bit more. We'll just push those stems up so it's a shorter branch, okay, now it's a much shorter branch, maybe a rose. I don't know, let's try this okay, so now that we have them on I. I'm just going to go back and add them on each side and then I'm going to show you what we're going to fill in our wreath, okay, I've been doing this, I said, I told you. that I do this. and I come back, but I want to stop it and show you that I don't have anything zip tied, but what I'm trying to do is make sure they're balanced on both sides so I can hold them.

Both here and I absolutely asked to have this one at the same time, so what I'm going to do is when I put a zip tie here, it's going to cover both sides of this tulip so that one and this one come. together in a bridle, okay, and that way, he should have restraints, but you're trying to make sure we have this right, okay, I'm looking and I might need to bring this one, oh. Yeah, we need to get this one a little bit closer and then bring this one in and just flip it over and see how close it is, but they're not that close there, so I need to keep pulling. in this to get this to give it more balance okay so let's take this out a little bit and I think that's going to cover it pretty well so I'm just going to keep filling them in and making sure I have enough greenery on both sides so here I have something of extra greenery, so I'll probably just put this one here, maybe use a smaller zip tie because that's just the one I'm actually going to do, this puts these two together. another yellow so we have a more balanced look here okay, I'm almost done.

I'm really happy with the way it turned out, you'll just add a few tulips here and there. I just saw us. not two bunches of pink and not two bunches of yellow because I was missing some tulips, but I have some of this. I'm not really sure what you'd call it, but I like the small one. The white lily thing here, so I'm going to cut all of this out and I'm going to incorporate it inside my race and I'm going to push up a little bit of that green and I'm just going to go ahead and add this just to give it a little bit more.

I think I could leave it like that and be done with it. I just want to add a hint of something else, so I'm going to continue here and we'll place them and then if I like the way it looks, then I'll just Vincent Lee put some zip ties or even at this point you could add a little bit of glue and this should tell you where it is. you put and that's probably what I'm going to do because now you I've built this kind of flower and soda forest so let's put one here so I'm like the way it looks so let's see here and put , we will put you. here maybe any one from there is fine, so I'm just going to add a little bit of glue here at this point and any of the tools that you see can be used like my glue gun, my wire cutters, all of that, all of that is in my Amazon affiliate store and I always leave that link in the description box below and it's an easy way to go somewhere and find out that I'm still careful not to get glue on my pretty petals, but I'm just going to add a little bit of glue and I'll be right back and then we'll start with the sensor okay so we'll use this tape that I just got from a place called trendy

tree

calm.

I'll leave my link in the description box below if you want to see her ribbon, this is a two and a half inch ribbon so what we're going to do is start with a tail, okay, so you're going to need that much glue. Oh, about eight inches and we're going to try to make a loop about 4 inches here, okay, I'm going to take it, so we're just going to take it and make a loop and I'm going to gather it between my fingers here, okay, okay. , so I'm going to To make another loop again, I just want to make sure it's about four inches.

I'm going to use my mat here, yeah, that works well and I'm just going to put it together, okay? I still have my tail. I'm going to do another loop. and I'm going to make it the same size as this one, I'm going to put it together, then I'm going to twist it so that we have the right side of the ribbon showing, okay, bear the same size, I'm going to put it together and then I'm going to twist this so that it looks here, so this will be our other tail, take my scissors and just cut it off and you can use it if you have a bow.

I like the pro bow, but I know not everyone watching me has it. one, so normally I would take out my Provo Matt machine and make a nice bow with that, so I'll take just a Chanel stem here and I'll go through the middle and twist it so It's really simple, just a very simple bow, so to cover you can leave the Chanel stem and let it show, but I won't do that. I'm going to do something else. I'm just going to cut about six inches or so here and then. I'm going to fold it over and see how I did it and then I'm just going to cover the top of the Chanel stem so it has that really cute little bow, so make sure one of the stems is this way once they're this way. then you can rotate on top of it, okay and rotate very well, so now I'm just going to move these and this, honestly, this tape is so material and it's going to stay still.

I'm just going to add a little bit of glue and like glue. Take it down instead of cutting it, I'm just going to glue it to the back, turn it over so we have this cute little bow now, so now you can see the tails, they don't quite match up, so just do it like this and cut it at an angle, do it again, okay, now that we have our wreath, we're going to take our ribbon or bow that we just made and we're going to go over the middle section, here I'm doing it. angled across the existing one and I probably should have used a little bit of wire because this Chanel stem is a little tight so you see how I did it just go in at an angle and then I'll turn it and if you have a little bit of visible space, so you could add let's look at a little bit more vegetation, but I think it's pretty good, so what I'm going to do is remove some vegetation from here in the green of your vegetation down here and then we're going to add it in, so I'm just going to cut which I think we could have left over here and I'll just add a little bit to cover this little bare spot.

Okay, and then I'm going to place that tulip on top, but I hope you enjoyed it. I think it's really easy, maybe have some daisies or some other leftover flowers, even sunflowers, because it would be pretty with sunflowers. and you could fix it that way, but it's pretty good, so I added a little bit. I removed a little bit of this top when I added the third one, I went down here just to balance it out a little bit, but I think this is just perfect as is. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial again. This was a cross frame from Dollar Tree, but if you don't have access to it, I suggest getting some wooden dowels and making your own or checking out. on a fashion tree they can have cross frames, the wreath photo can have cross frames and I will leave my link below in the description box.
